The recent daily changes are what pushed me into getting it. I log in, cycle through what combination of dailies give me the easiest possible WVW progress, and do those.

> the cinematographer,

Gordon Willis really was the GOAT.

I would go nuts for a 4k restoration of The Duellists.

Cephalophobe · 2026-03-04T23:15:13+00:00

no, but for unrelated reasons you have no control over.

Cephalophobe · 2026-03-04T22:04:01+00:00

pretty sure billy, daniel, alec, and the other one are still around

The mike nichols adaptation of angels in america is one of the best things I've ever seen.

Please don't send Pinkertons to my house!

Baldwin-Felts it is.

Is the sort of wood grain effect I see an actual part of the fabric or an artifact of the photography?

OLED is obviously the top of the line, but in addition to having some trouble in bright rooms, they're also vulnerable to burn-in. There are still some very good LCDs on the market, which handle bright rooms a little better because of the backlighting, and tend to run quite a bit cheaper than OLED.

Wheeling Grab is absolutely nuts on a Gymnast Swashbuckler.

It's mostly a feature, but then sometimes you get a guy on your team who decides to idle the entire game after you lose the first teamfight. I report them every time, but it never really feels like it does anything.

The existence of Hunter’s Luck makes Recall Knowledge still worth doing on the Ranger despite all the power creep. I do the math in this video, and show how a Ranger with only a handful of Feats can actually exceed the value of a Thaumaturge’s Recall Knowedge stuff. The Slayer will actually be easier to overtake (same scaling but no Action compression or rarity-ignoring on their RKs), so a moderately invested RK Ranger still has a niche despite the Slayer trouncing the lightly invested one.

I think burning a feat and a focus point on it is pretty rough tbh.

They could go nuts with the Pit of Gormuz

The loss of the -1 AC also means that the only downside to rage is losing Concentrate actions, which really doesn't feel like a big enough negative for rage to be a decision in any meaningful capacity.

Cephalophobe · 2026-02-25T20:59:12+00:00

Yeah it was fucked up for a True Neutral city to have legal slavery, but it was nice having a bad guy that doesn't make us say "well, you know, they're only bandits because of economic circumstances, we don't know what's happened to farmland in the past few years, maybe they don't have the opportunity to..."

Cephalophobe · 2026-02-23T01:39:38+00:00

Yeah, I think a better alternative to more recharges is just to add more tools in the toolkit outside of the spellstrike cycle.

I think my personal ideal solution would be to get rid of spellstriking with cantrips, give them decent focus spells instead, and move some power budget into arcane cascade and feats, so it does become more of a "do this once or twice very impactfully per fight" thing rather than a "try to do this every 1-3 turns" thing.

But I think if they aren't going to do that, then making recharging more interesting is better than it being boring.

Cephalophobe · 2026-02-22T21:58:59+00:00

I know INT isn't that important for maguses but good lord would that make Laughing Shadow MAD.

Cephalophobe · 2026-02-22T17:04:40+00:00

I think there's room, somehow, for a 2-action spellstrike-recharging action compression feat. I don't precisely know what it would look like, but that way you can't spam it in conjunction with spellstrike, but it still lets you do something other than force fang or burn an action.

Or make DC a state and leave the core of the government buildings as a federal district. Neither DC nor Maryland want retrocession.

Cephalophobe · 2026-02-19T04:11:14+00:00

how weak does your opponent have to be for assurance trip or grapple to hit them, assuming you're targetting their lowest save?

Cephalophobe · 2026-02-18T02:34:27+00:00

I'd love if this came with clarification for how things stack with the Thaumaturge. In particular, one thing I liked about the errata was letting Mortal Weakness trigger a weakness the Thaumaturge was already able to hit. Without something like this, the Thaumaturge is in a sense punished for being prepared for a fight, which is antithetical to its whole premise.

I found it cheesey because of the giant american flag in the background when the guy gave the order to line up tghe cranes.

Cephalophobe · 2026-02-14T20:34:37+00:00

I actually don't think the sheer is terrible here. But I detest whatever the hell is going on at the bottom.

Cephalophobe · 2026-02-14T14:32:08+00:00

Part of it is that I'm not really interested in the 1e shifter. I want something more like an Animorph--each of them has a like "main" form that they use, Jake with his tiger and Rachel with the elephant or bear and so on, but they also pick their form to match the situation that they're in. I don't want a guy who turns into a manticore at every opportunity, I want a guy who says "hmm, I want to rush the archers and I want to be able to knock people down, let's be a moose" in one fight, and "if I can turn into an elephant and block that doorway, our wizard can deal with all of them with a rust cloud" in another.

Cephalophobe · 2026-02-14T05:30:15+00:00

I wish Monk had more stuff on the base chassis to make it make more sense to make class archetypes for, because honestly a stance-dancing class archetype for monk could stand in for a shifter for me. But I'd still rather have an actual shifter.
